Dear Seagal,
I just wanted to respond to the question you had about talking with our loved ones who have passed on. I could not come close to some of the dear people who have posted here with such beautiful messages, but my little encouragement I offer just the same.
One of the most difficult deaths I have experienced was the passing of a dear friend and priest who was like a father/brother to me. I started talking to him immediately after he died. I would joke that I didn’t even let him rest for two minutes before I started! But,really, because of the bond that was there, I knew he would welcome my prayers and conversation, and requests for prayer! It is said that the souls cannot pray for themselves, but only for others. I also recommend the Divine Mercy Chaplet. It is said to be very beneficial for the holy souls.It also is very beneficial for us who are still here; the actual content of the prayer, and the fact that we are helping our deceased loved ones.

God Bless you, and I hope your move went smoothly.

In Christ

Peace,
Kelly
 
I have nothing to add except that I believe many share your questions. Your loss is so great. May God hold you in the palm of His hand, be there for you and let you know it. :gopray:

-Peace-
 
I am so sorry for your loss. This same thing happened to my uncle 3 yrs ago. The only thing that kept us sane was God. I do try to tak to my uncle just to make sure he doesn’t forget about his 2 little ones and so he may ask God for healing for my grandparents who are still devastated from the loss.

Go to Mass, talk to a priest. Maybe your parish has a grief group. My mom went to a grieving counselor when this happened. It helped her a lot.

My prayers are with you.
